This print is one my latest, using woodblock relief printing.

The woodblock was created by myself, by taking a piece of solid English Ash, and carve it, using woodworking carving tools.  It was then planned flat so the ink would distribute evenly across the surface, then printed by hand, using my own hand built press.

I enjoyed creating the woodblock it very much – I intentionally drew the outline at the start roughly so there would be some unevenness, and hence interest, in the shapes.

I am hoping to create some more animal prints in due course.
